Chevrolet SUV ranks top in Saudi Auto tests

Dubai, August 31, 2009

Chevrolet’s full size SUV Tahoe has been named as the 'Editor's Choice' in the latest issue of Saudi Auto, the leading automotive magazine in Saudi Arabia, after a comparative test against the Toyota Sequoia.

Bakur Azher, publisher and editor in Chief of Saudi Auto, said: “In a closely fought contest, the Chevrolet Tahoe wins the editor’s seal of approval as the full size SUV of choice. Its ability to combine all its attributes together with excellent value puts it ahead of the competition.”

“Designed to deliver a sharper driving experience, segment-leading fuel efficiency, increased interior refinement and improved quietness, the Tahoe is truly a leader in its category. With these qualities in mind, we are delighted to receive this prestigious accolade from Saudi Auto.”

The Chevrolet Tahoe is available in three trim levels: LS, LT and LTZ, with two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive models available.

All come well equipped with six speed transmission and a world class 5.3-litre V8 engine with 355 hp at 5,200 rpm. Enhanced safety, comfort and convenience features and refinements throughout Tahoe’s spacious interior create an environment exuding quality, precision and comfort.

“This recognition marks yet another milestone for the Chevrolet Tahoe in the Middle East. The appeal of the Tahoe is at an all-time high and has not slowed down since it won the Saudi Auto ‘Truck of the Year’ accolade in 2007,” said Amiouni. – TradeArabia News Service
